معلومات عن هذه الحلقة
You've probably said it, or thought it: "I don't feel like I'm doing enough." It's one of the most common statements we hear from people who come to us from high-intensity backgrounds — CrossFit, boot camps, no-rest-days culture — where more was always the answer.
In this episode, Rob, Pete, Larry, and Wendy take apart the myth that more is better. More volume, more intensity, more days — it feels like progress, but it often quietly works against you. We dig into the law of diminishing returns, why you can get roughly 80% of your strength gains from just two well-programmed days a week, and why recovery is where results are actually built.
Pete shares how cramming everything into each CrossFit session left him hurt, weaker, and going backwards. We cover the interference effect, newbie gains, how hormones and cortisol shift after 40, and why a sustainable long game beats any six-week burnout program.
So if you feel like you're "not doing enough" — good. This conversation will change how you think about your week in the gym.
